Good Advice to Women.
Trust not to uncertain riches, bntprepare
yourself for every emergency in life. Learn !
to work, and not be dependent upon servants |
to make your bread, sweep your floors, andj
darn your stockings. Above all things, do ,
not esteem too lightly those honorable young,
men', who sustain themselves and their aged ,
parents by the woik jof their own Lmds,!
whilo you earc for and rceeivo ij^to your company
thoso lazy ^popinjays, who never lift a
a finger to help themselves, so long as they
can keep body and soul together and get
sufficient to keep in fashion. If you are wise,i
vou will look at this subject n* w#? .1.% nr>a I
when you aic old enough to becomq wives,
y^U will prefer the honest mechanic, with not
a cent to commence life, to the fashionable
loafer, will) ten thousand dollars.
Whenever we hear it remarked, "snob a
lady has married a fortune," we moat always
tremble for Lor prosperity. Riches left to;
children by wealthy parents often prove a
curso instead of a blowing. Young women, i
remember this, ami instead of sounding the I
purses of your lovers, and examine the out
of their coats, look into their habits and

Effects of using Tobacco.
t It is frequently iv-ked whelhet the use of
tobacco ?? injurious to the tenth and the
health. In answer to which, the inquirer

fatal in a Mw mjnutey; and a nuarlcr of a
drop of the latter will kill a rabbit, and a

it can be otherwise than injurious, not only

* * A Nautical J oka,
SOmk years ago, tho Yankee schooner, i
"Sally Ann," under command of one Can-!
tain Spooucr, was boating up the Conuecti- j
cul Hirer. Mr. Comstock, the mate, was at,
his station forward. According to his notion
ofthinga, tho schooner was getting a little |
too near to certain "flats," whW|i lay along j
tho larbored shore. So nft b? -goes to the'

' says:
"Cnp'n Spooiter, you're getting' leetlc too

To which Captain Ppooncr replied :
"Mr. Comstock, jest you go for'ard aud

Mr. Coinstock went "for'ard" in htsdudg-i

"Boys, see that 'arc mud-hook all clear

"Hello, Brow?1 hero, I've got a box for you." 1
"Have you!" said Brown, approaching, <
"where did it come from ?" 1
"From Boston," was the reply, "just
brought in by express." And he lifted from
the top of his coach a stoutly built box, about
ten inches square, and rather heavy, upon j
which was inscribed, in a proper manner, ,
the directions:
"Mr. Thomas Brown, Kenuebuuk, Me.
By 's Express."
"What is the frcightl" inquired Brown,

"Only nine shillings," said the knight of

Enjoyment of Lii*K.?Two wealthy gen- 1

the period when they had best enjoyed them- 1

f?t twenty cents per day." "Well,** replied j
tlio other, ''that does not difl'er inucli from
my experience. When I was twenty, I hired
myself out at seven dollars a month. I
liave never enjoyed myself sinco.', The ex|>erience
of these two individuals teaches, first, |
that one's happiness docs not depend on the i
amount of his gains and tho station he occupies

industry and prudence may secure wealth. ^

One day a tin pedlar, with an assortment
of mcknacks, arrived at a village
11 Maine, and called at one of the houses
to sell his wares. After disposing
)f a few articles to the lady of tlie noose,
who seemed to live in the midst of
children, she declared her inability to
t>uy more for the dfont of money.
"But, marm, aint you any rags ?" "Hone

"What will yon give, sir ?"
"Ten dollar# for one of them."
"In good tin ware 2"
"O, ves marm, tho best."
"Well, sir, it is a bargain."
She then handed one of the urchins
:o the pedlar, who, surprised that the
)ffer was accepted, yet convinced that
:lie mother would not part with hor boy,
placed him in the cart, and supplied
;he woman with tins until the sum of
;en dollars was made up.
The man felt certain that the moth;r
would rather raise tho money than
part with lfer child, seated himself by
.he side of the boy, who was much
deased with tho idea of having a ride.
The pedlar kept his ey<^8 on the house,
ixpecting to see the woman hasten t >
edecrti die little one, and rode off at a
slt>w pace. After proceeding some disnncc,
he began to repent of his bargain,
and turned back.
The woman had just finished ornanenting
her dresser with the tin, when
ho pedir.r returned.
."Well, I think the boy is to small.?
[ guess you had hotter take him back

"No, sir, the bargain was fair, and
rou shall keep to it. You may start
iff as soon as you please."
Surprised at this, the pedlar exclaimed?
"Why, mnrm, how can you think of
parting: wiik your boy no young to an
utter stranger ?"
"Oh, sir, we would like to sell off all
